The kinesin family of motor proteins comprise at least two forms of conventional kinesin (kinesin-I). They are encoded by different genes and designated ubiquitous kinesin, which is expressed in all cells and tissues, and neuronal kinesin, which is expressed exclusively in neuronal cells. Conventional kinesin is a heterotetramer of two kinesin heavy chain subunits and two kinesin light chain subunits. While the kinesin heavy chain contains motor activity, evidence suggests that the kinesin light chain is involved in either modulation of kinesin heavy chain activity or in cargo binding. The motor protein kinesin is a heterotetramer composed of two heavy chains and two light chains. Kinesin motor activity is dependent on the presence of ATP and microtubules.
